Re-Mission: A game for the greater good
While most of us are busy pommeling our friends in Soul Calibur IV, there are people with cancer who are waging their own fight — within themselves and in front of a screen.
Re-Mission, a computer game developed by the non-profit group HopeLabs, is designed to encourage cancer patients to stay on their medicine. In the game, a micro-robot named Roxxi travels through the body to attack cancer cells and fight the side effects of treatment. Over the course of 20 missions, players learn about the consequences of skipping their medication.
